Just how much my mother quietly sacrificed for me. When you’re younger, you take meals, advice, and endless patience completely for granted—often mistaking her worry for nagging. It took getting older and navigating adulthood myself to realize that she was carrying the weight of the world while figuring life out in real time, too. I wish I’d understood that sooner and appreciated her for the person she is, not just the parent she had to be.
